Change is something most professionals are scared of, especially those with kids in school and mortgages to pay. The certainty of a stable career is hard to resist. It is difficult to disengage from a professional identity one spent years creating. A career change means a complete transformation – new job, new position, new employer – it’s a big deal! And it can lead to massive stress and worry. But career stagnation and monotony can also cause a lot of unhappiness.
There comes a point when we want to try out something radically different, which taps into our full range of talents. So, if you find yourself fantasising about a completely new career, and you have the energy, money and courage to reinvent yourself, my advice will be to go for it. Instead of day-dreaming, you have the choice to fill your career with excitement and purpose if you are willing to take a leap of faith with an uninhibited sense of wanderlust, curiosity and adventure.

He has appeared since at the AspenIdeas and New Yorker festivals, on the Organization of American States blue ribbon commission advising hemispheric drug policy, and in hundreds of forums and discussions promoting the ideas outlined in his first book, ReeferSanity: Seven Great Myths About Marijuana, published by Beaufort. He has been featured on the front page of the New York Times and in virtually every major media publication and news channel on the subject of drug policy.

Issue Monday – The U.S.-China Relationship: The Unfolding Strategic Competition?
Speaker: Randall Schriver
The United States and the People’s Republic of China (PRC) may have arrived at an inflection point in the bilateral relationship. While some analysts continue to believe a cooperative relationship is possible, and that the U.S. and the PRC can form a G-2 type partnership to tackle a range of global challenges, an increasing number of analyst see a very different trajectory. China’s assertive behavior and confrontational rhetoric suggest we are the leading edge in what will be a long and intense strategic competition for dominance over the Pacific Rim. While American strategists Andrew Marshall, Robert Kaplan, and Aaron Friedberg each began foretelling of this great power struggle ov...

The Urban 6 Billion: A Blueprint for Development Through Private Investment

Paul Wesling, Origins of Silicon Valley: How It Happened & Predictions for the Upcoming Years , Tandem Computers/H-P (retired), past IEEESF Bay AreaCommunications Director, IEEE Life Fellow
Why did Silicon Valley come into being, why is it successful, and where is it going? The story goes back to local Hams (amateur radio operators) trying to break RCA's tube patents, early Stanford engineers, the sinking of the Titanic, early "angel" investments, Fred Terman and Stanford, local invention of high-power tubes (gammatron, klystron), WW II and radar, new approaches to running companies, and the SF Bay Area infrastructure that developed – these factors pretty much determined that the semiconductor and IC industries would be located in the Santa Clara Valley.
Paul Wesling, an IEEE Life Fellow and Distinguished Lecturer, will give an exciting and colorful history of device technology development and innovation that began in Palo Alto with some Stanford grads, moved down the Peninsula, and spread across the Santa Clara Valley during and following World War II. You'll meet some of the colorful characters – Cyril Elwell, Lee DeForest, Bill Eitel, Charles Litton, Fred Terman, David Packard, Bill Hewlett, William Shockley, Jean Hoerni, Gordon Moore and others – who came to set leadership patterns for worldwide electronics industries through their inventions and process development and allied management techniques. This explosion of innovation continued through analog design, to digital, then to software, biotech, the graphical user interface, the Internet, mobile, Big Data, virtual reality, and now autonomous transportation. He'll end by telling us about some current local organizations and movements that keep alive the spirit of the radio Hams and the Homebrew Computer Club – ACM/IEEE, Maker Faire, MeetUps, and the other entrepreneurial groups where geeks gather to start new companies that invent the future – and his thoughts on technology developments expected in the next few years.
Speaker Bio
Paul Wesling received his BS in electrical engineering and his MS in materials science from Stanford University. Following assignments at GTE/Lenkurt Electric, ISS/Sperry-Univac, Datapoint Peripheral Products (VP - ProductIntegrity), and Amdahl (mainframe testing), he joined Tandem Computers in Cupertino (now part of Hewlett Packard) in 1985. He designed several multi-chip module prototypes, managed Tandem's Distinguished Lectures series, and organized a number of advanced technology courses for his Division and also for the IEEE. He managed a grant from the National Science Foundation for the development of multimedia educational modules. Paul retired from HP in 2001, and then served for 10 years as the Communications Director for the IEEE's S.F.Bay Area Council.
As vice president of publications from 1985 through 2008, he supervised four archival journals and a newsletter for IEEE's Components, Packaging and ManufacturingTechnology (CPMT) Society. He is a Fellow of the IEEE, and received the IEEE Centennial Medal, the Board's Distinguished Service award, the Society ContributionAward, and the IEEE's Third MillenniumMedal. He has organized over 500 courses for the local IEEE chapter in the Santa Clara Valley, many of them held at Stanford (and, more recently, at Silicon Valley company facilities). An Eagle Scout, he served as scoutmaster of his local Boy Scout Troop for 15 years, was Advisor of a High-Adventure Crew, and enjoys backpacking, fly fishing, guitar and amateur radio (call sign: KM6LH).

Consider a Change in Career | Aditi Dubey | TEDxCentennialCollege

Change is something most professionals are scared of, especially those with kids in school and mortgages to pay. The certainty of a stable career is hard to resist. It is difficult to disengage from a professional identity one spent years creating. A career change means a complete transformation – new job, new position, new employer – it’s a big deal! And it can lead to massive stress and worry. But career stagnation and monotony can also cause a lot of unhappiness.
There comes a point when we want to try out something radically different, which taps into our full range of talents. So, if you find yourself fantasising about a completely new career, and you have the energy, money and courage to reinvent yourself, my advice will be to go for it. Instead of day-dreaming, you have the choice to fill your career with excitement and purpose if you are willing to take a leap of faith with an uninhibited sense of wanderlust, curiosity and adventure.
Dr. Aditi Dubey who was previously an assistant professor in Centennial College! She is now a lecturer in the Centre of Applied English Studies, Faculty of Arts, The University of Hong Kong. Before being a educator she has also been a BBCRadio news presenter and reporter and also a flight attendant. She will share with us her experience and views regarding career change.

2017 World Food Prize

Iowa Public Television provided live coverage of The World Food PrizeLaureateAwardCeremony at the Iowa Capitol on Thursday, October 19 at 7 p.m. The ceremony was broadcast on statewide Iowa Public Television and was live streamed at Iptv.org and on YouTube. The broadcast will repeat Sunday, October 22 at 1 p.m.
The World Food Prize was founded by Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and Iowan Norman Borlaug. After winning the Nobel Prize in 1970 for his achievements in agricultural research, Borlaug envisioned a separate international award to recognize those who have made significant contributions to advancements in the quality, quantity and availability of food in the world.
The 2017 prize was awarded to Nigerian Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, President of the African Development Bank, for driving change in African agriculture for over 25 years and improving food security for millions across the continent. Awarded by the World Food PrizeFoundation, the $250,000 prize honors Dr. Adesina for his leading role over the past two decades in significantly expanding food production in Nigeria, introducing initiatives to exponentially increase the availability of credit for smallholder farmers across the African continent and galvanizing the political will to transform African agriculture.
Programming support for the 2017 World Food Prize is provided by the W.T. and Edna M. Dahl Trust.
